We are thrilled to share this review from Peter and his young family. If you’re thinking of bringing the whole gang on your GreenSpot vacation to Costa Rica, we can help plan family-friendly activities that everyone will enjoy. “My wife and children (ages 7 and 5) just returned from an amazing Costa Rica adventure arranged […]
What’s big and round and hangs out in the ground? Frankly, no one is quite sure, but about 300 of them have been found and date back to 400 B.C.E. The mysterious (and strangely alluring) stone spheres of Costa Rica have been uncovered primarily in the southern Diquis Delta, with some found as far afield […]
We received this lovely travel memory from The Goldfarb Family and just had to share with you: “As someone who spends her life writing and thinking about food, I really enjoyed the fresh flavors of Costa Rica, especially the fresh mangoes and pineapple, fresh herbs, and locally caught fish with exotic-tasting sauces. But what we […]
La Cascada is probably the best known restaurant in the little town of La Fortuna and sits near the base of the Arenal Volcano. Our steaks were pretty good but a little tough (which is pretty common for a steak in Costa Rica). We always spend time on our trips to Costa Rica in the […]
We LOVE hearing from our clients and wanted to share this review from The Phillips Family who took a GreenSpot vacation to Costa Rica. If you would like to share your feedback or trip photos, please email us! Dear Irene: I want to Thank You for putting together such a wonderfully organized trip together for […]
If you are familiar with this warm culture and country, the title above would make sense, well maybe… In Costa Rica there is a dish so popular an entire day of celebration has been dedicated to it. Gallo Pinto is usually made daily and available for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. The name means “spotted rooster” […]
Nicaragua has been deemed the next “it destination” in Central America. While the purpose of many travelers’ visits to Central America’s largest country is to experience the volcanoes, lakes, beaches, wildlife, and culture–the first and last impressions of the country may be the most important. And where do those impressions take place? Unless you’re coming […]
Tackling another language is tricky, so it’s smart to start with survival words. Teach a man to say fish, and voila! He has dinner. Well, technically he has to say the right word for fish otherwise he may be served something that’s still swimming. In Spanish the word for fish that is still breathing […]

¨The fishing village largely exists as it has for hundreds of years. Narrow dirt roads wind through thatch-roofed homes. Children fly kites after school through the streets. Women dressed in traditional, explosively colorful headscarves and kaleidoscopic beads sew on porches. Men fish and chop wood. Smoke from cooking fires mingles with the thick rain forest humidity and sea air.¨

Being invited into a local family's home, like Evangelia's, to share in tradition creates the most lasting travel memories, doesn't it?
